When using the IBM Cabling System (ICS), the maximum
"equivalent" distance between the host and the last workstation on the
res
cable
is
5000 feet.
To calculate the "equivalent" distance, use the formula:
a+2b+
1.
Sc
where:
a
b
c
Is the actual length
of
type 1 or type 2 cable
Is the actual length
of
type 8 cable
Is the actual length
of
type 6 or type 9 cable
For more information about arranging devices, see the installation or
device configuration documentation for the host.
